    I've been making twice baked feta sweet potatos, and they're really good and easy (if time consuming because the baking process takes a while)

    you take a large sweet potato, bake it until tender (remember to poke holes in the skin), then you half it scoop out the insides but leave the outside intact, mix them with half a block of feta, some minced garlic and pepper, and then you either scoop it back into the halfs, or you scoop all of it into one half and then crack an egg into the other one, sprinkle some feta, salt and pepper on top and pop it back into the oven until the egg is as done as you want it

    I made butter last night! This is exciting on its own, bc homemade butter is the best, but I made a larger batch this time and it wouldn't all fit in my butter bell, so I split the remainder in two and made two different flavors of compounded butter. My sis made scones this morning, and I just ate a scone with the sweet compounded flavor, and it was amazing.

    Vanilla sugar-crusted scone with whipped orange floral honey butter = *heart eyes*

    roasted salmon with peppers, potatoes, and kale! marinaded the salmon with soy sauce, garlic, ginger, lemon juice, sesame oil, and brown sugar for a couple hours, then used the marinade to flavor the roasted veg. kale is with slightly charred red onions and garlic. baked at 320 for about 45 minutes. enough for me, my roommate, and also leftovers for a couple days :D

    made zucchini double chocolate cake today and GOD it'd good. I was considering putting on a glaze, but frankly the thing is so decadent and chocolatey already that it doesn't need any extra, lest it become overwhelming.

It's good y'all. it's really really good.

    i made pork mince stir-fry! w/ pork mince, carrots, onion, and sage, some beef stock, 2x small stock container full of soy sauce, some tumeric, ginger, white pepper, garlic powder, and ground cloves, and a bit of sesame oil all put in at once (well the sesame oil went in the pan first to oil it then the rest went in), then some corn starch water to make it form a sauce, then after it was mostly cooked I added mung bean sprouts and spring onion!


    and also plain rice for it to be served over

    Apparently it's that time of year again when I go looking for mulled cider recipes and rediscover, again, that none of the early search engine hits have any middle ground between "add 2 cloves and 2 allspice berries to an entire gallon of apple juice! Don't worry, you can use less if it's too spicy :)" and "add 6 whole star anise and reflect on your sins."

    I ended up throwing a completely ad-libbed amount of the spices I keep around for chai in this time, but I'll keep those recipes on hand for future endeavors!

    No worries! That is my preferred method for spicing most things, tbh.

    I steeped some chai in hot eggnog and oh boy that was a good idea.

    tonights dinner: storebrought garlic bread (the kind that comes half-baked and needs to finish cooking in the oven), cheesy peppery cabbage, and homemade meatballs

    meatball seasonings: chopped onion and garlic, dried sweet basil, a splash of soy sauce, and powdered ginger and white pepper; also requires some breadcrumbs for not falling apart but according to mum you can also use an egg to get the meatballs to stick together as meatballs instead of turning into flavoured mince

    I've never thought of combining cabbage and cheese. I'll have to look into some recipes

    so what does one do with like a pint of rendered goose fat/oil? we braised a goose for Christmas and now we aren't sure what to do with everything we skimmed off the top of the stock pot
